Who we are
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us.
Durham's local housing mix includes older single-family homes, modest brick ranches and bungalows, and small rental properties or duplexes. Downtown Durham, Old West Durham, Trinity Park, Lakewood, Hope Valley, and Southpoint are local orientation examples—not claims that we bought a house in any of those places.
Experience
Our founder bought his first property in 2004 — more than 20 years of buying houses.
We've helped homeowners in just about every situation you can imagine — thousands of times. When you're working with someone, you want to know they've seen it before. We have.
We buy nationwide and focus on the country's most promising markets — not tied to one region, so we don't get stuck when a local market turns.
Our headquarters are in King of Prussia, PA. We serve Durham with local market handling; serving Durham does not mean our headquarters are here.
Your written offer and closing
Review the settlement sheet
We always review the settlement sheet with the seller and walk through how the money breaks down so there is no confusion. We try to do that the day before closing so settlement is smooth; the title company confirms the final numbers.
Closing costs
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including North Carolina's excise tax on conveyances.
This does not pay your mortgage, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes.
Signing from another location
Sell from anywhere in the country — we can send a notary to you, and you don't have to attend settlement or even visit the property.
Cash Offer or EZ Sale: compare the written numbers
We have two ways to buy. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations — heavy repairs, tight timelines, difficult circumstances. EZ Sale is often the better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Either way, you compare written numbers and you pick what works best for you.
